Woman Goes Through X-Ray At Train Station To Protect Purse

posted by Dave Basner -

An untrusting woman shocked security at a train station in China when she went through the X-Ray machine with her belongings because she thought someone might steal her purse.

Photos show what baffled officers saw on the screen as the woman passed through. There's also security footage of the woman at the station.

Apparently the traveller had no problem letting her luggage go through, but as she walked through the checkpoint with her handbag, security asked her to run it through the machine as well. She put her purse on the conveyor belt but then climbed on after it.

Security allowed the woman to walk away after the incident. They've since asked passengers not to go through the machines since, while nowhere near as harmful as medical X-rays, radiation from security machines can hurt you.
